Palace of Florence Apartments

The Palace of Florence Apartments is a historic structure in Tampa, Florida, USA.

Its Mediterranean Revival architecture mixes medieval and classical elements to reproduce the look of a grand scale Italian palazzo, and includes a dramatic four-story battlement tower with exterior staircase.

The design, by artist Athos Menaboni, is loosely based on that of the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, Italy.,[3] hence the building's name.

On August 3, 1989, The Palace of Florence Apartments were among several Davis Islands properties included in a Multiple Property Submission(or MPS) to be listed with the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.

The MPS, named "Mediterranean Revival Style Buildings of Davis Islands", included a total of twenty-three historic structures, which were among the first ever built on the newly accessible Davis Islands during the Florida land boom of the 1920s.
